Cancel Transaction

The Cancel Transaction feature allows OPS-COM administrators to void an incomplete or erroneous payment directly from a user's profile. Its primary purpose is to provide flexibility in managing user accounts by either reserving a permit for future payment or releasing it back into the system's inventory. This guide is intended for OPS-COM administrators responsible for financial processing and user account management.

Setup and Configuration

Canceling a transaction is a core administrative function that requires no additional system setup or configuration. It is accessed entirely through the individual user's profile.

Using this Feature

Administrators interact with this feature by locating the transaction in the user's history and selecting the appropriate cancellation method.

Available Actions and Buttons

On the Transaction Details screen, you are presented with two distinct options for handling the cancellation:

  • Cancel & Keep: willClick this button to cancel the transaction but keep the transaction details andon reservethe user's account. This action reserves the permit so that you can process the payment at another time.

  • Cancel and& Release: willClick this button to cancel the payment and immediately release the permit back into the systemsystem.

Best Practices and Considerations

  • Verify user intent before releasing items: Always ensure the user no longer needs the permit before selecting Cancel & Release. Once an item is released, it returns to the active inventory and can be immediately purchased by another user.

  • Manage reserved permits: Organizations should develop a business rule for how long a permit can remain reserved under a Cancel & Keep status (e.g., 48 hours) before it must be either paid for or manually released to prevent inventory hoarding.
